How to Make GRANOLA

Homemade Granola

Ingredients:
4 cups Oats
1 cup Flax Seeds
1/2 cup Sliced Almonds
1/2 cup Honey
2 tbsp Blackstrap Molasses
1/4 cup Coconut Milk
2 tbsp cinnamon
1/2 cup Golden Raisins
1/2 cup Craisins (dried cranberries)

Step 1 - In a bowl, mix the oats, flax seeds, and almonds together. In another bowl, mix together honey, molasses, coconut milk, and cinnamon.




Step 2 - Cook the syrup mixture on the stove for a few minutes so everything mixes together real nice.



Step 3 - Add the syrup to the dry stuffs and mix it all up.



Step 4 - Grease a pan with canola oil or coconut oil, whatever you prefer, and spread the granola evenly around the pan. I set the over to 295 and let it bake for about an hour. Every 15 minutes or so, shift the granola around the pan so it gets evenly baked.



Step 5 - When it's done, let it cool and put it back in a bowl to add the raisins and craisins to the mix. Now it's ready to eat!
